The Traphouse // c.b & b.t

Movie Date

"Here you go." The girl, who I now know is Corey's girlfriend, Devyn, slides me a plate of food.

"Thank you." I reply. "For everything."

"Of course." She replies smiling. She returns to the sink to wash dishes. "But I have to ask."

I take a bite of my scrambled eggs and wait for the question.

"How well do you know Colby?" She dries her hands and leans against the sink.

"I've met him a couple times. I barely know him." I cringe slightly at how that makes me look. Sleeping with a guy I barely know and ending up like this.

"Okay." She crosses her arms and takes a deep breath.

That makes me nervous.

"I want you to know. Colby is a dick." She comes right out and says it with no hesitation.

"What do you mean, like how?" I want her to explain, I have no feelings toward him, but it would be good to know something like this before hand. Too late but whatever.

"He's a fuckboy, hes always bringing girls around and shit like that." She puts her finger on her chin and thinks for, what I think is, the right words. "He's the definition of a one night stand."

I nod my head and set my chin in my hand. Even though I don't like Colby like that at all, it still makes me feel gross that I was just another one night stand to him.

"Candy?" She says my name to make me snap out my thoughts. "You good?"

"Yeah sorry I'm good." I reply. "Thanks for letting me know Devyn, I appreciate it."

She nods her head. "And if you need anything, just let me know! Especially a makeover." She winks.

"A makeover?" I squeal. "Are you good at makeup?"

"I like to say that I am." She replies as she blinks quickly.

We both start laughing.

"Well, I should probably head back home." I stand up out of the bar stool and give Devyn a hug. "Thank you for breakfast, helping me last night, and giving me the advice."

She nods her head. "Of course."

"And I'll text you about that makeover!" I wink just as I head out the door.

I get back to the apartment and see Frannys car parked.

Great I'm going to have to explain to her why I'm coming home the next day, in the same clothes from last night.

I open the front door and Frannys head pops up from the couch.

"Hey Franny." I sigh. My eyes widen when I see Bobby's head pop up from the couch too.

"And Bobby?" I cross my arms.

Popcorn on the table, movie playing, both under a blanket. This is a fucking date.

"Oohhh Candy.... you're home?" Franny weakly smiles at me.

"Um yeah." I set my stuff down and grin widely. "Had to at some point, Um what's going on here?"

I point to them and the tv and then back at them.

Bobby slowly grabs a piece of popcorn and eats it, still staring at me.

"Um Candy?" Franny stands up and grabs my arm. "Can I talk to you?"

"Uh yeah we need to talk." I whisper with a huge smile on my face.
